Northstar – The Pornographer's Daughter Lyrics 21 years ago
oh I forgot...

"smile like a child sitting in the sea, forget about whats in the water and just focus in on me"

Children are innocent and therefor inherently ignorant... the second part explains this more clearly.

Northstar – The Pornographer's Daughter Lyrics 21 years ago
I thought the sex metaphor was too easily come across so whether I dug too deeply or not I found the mentioning of casual sex to just be more support for this songs true meaning, willful ignorance.

They are ignorant in the belief that sex and drugs will fix everything

"Phantom of the opera"
Behind a mask... hiding from the truth of who they are

"Lanturn you blow out first"
in the dark... repeat meaning of the phantom

The use of the word bell curve, the theory that humanity is on basically filled with a lot of average people and few idiots and genius's suggests he's trying to forget this with drugs... ex: "strap my face to a homemade bomb, strength from inhalers"

Holding your breath is generally equated with hoping for a better outcome, thus the phrase "don't hold your breath"

"My hero's made of plastic"
this line is the strongest support for a sex metaphor but plastic can also be interpreted as fake... or hiding. Besides... if it was a sex metaphor the "now he's dead" part is a stretch, it doesn't fit with simply throwing a condom away....

yeah.. that was quite a bit of typing

The Blood Brothers – Six Nightmares at the Pinball Masquerade Lyrics 21 years ago
The wedding metaphor makes sense... especially with the liberal use of skeletons as a theme. Who hasn't heard the saying "skeleton in your closet"?

"curtains of hair"
Hiding behind vanity... many people's vanity is presented through their hair...

"Peacock mask"'
Outward beauty disguising a distasteful inside.

"man striped up... guest gowns"
These lyrics make the wedding theme more evident

The Blood Brothers – The Shame Lyrics 21 years ago
The psychology behind this song... it can work as hypnosis... listen to the end when you're tired. The falsity of most feeling is addressed "a bucket of popcorn for the cemetary" and the title reveals a more obvious feeling of what else but shame. At humanity in general the damage it has caused to itself and what's around it.

The Blood Brothers – Burn, Piano Island, Burn Lyrics 21 years ago
if he actually killed them... it would be a departure from the blood brothers lyrical genius.as Autumn0Dreamer said it's most likely metaphorical. Maybe not madness so much as an emotion of frustation tested to the breaking point, madness is so general.

The Blood Brothers – God Bless You, Blood Thirsty Zeppelins Lyrics 21 years ago
The artificiality of emotion... "brews... smiles" "manufactures... ecstasy" and corruption of those in power, starting a big brother like system that feeds off it... "frustatrion symphony"
